About

I am a licensed professional counselor with most of my career spent working for the Federal government with Veterans, Active Duty Military, and their family members. I have specialize in trauma, addiction, personality disorders, and suicide prevention; however, I have worked with clients with a wide range of concerns including depression, anxiety, relationship issues, parenting problems, career challenges, grief, and bullying.

My therapy style is warm and interactive; we will collaborate and work together to reach your treatment goals. I believe in treating everyone with with compassion and respect, while providing excellent care. I am grounded in Adlerian theory; however, I am trained in cognitive-behavioral therapy , dialectical behavior therapy, acceptance and commitment therapy, cognitive progressing therapy, prolonged exposure, and eye movement desensitization and reprocessing. I tailor my approach to meet each client's unique needs and what will work best for the client meet their treatment goals.

I'm here to help you start your journey. It takes courage to start, but YOU are braver than YOU know!
"Semper Fortis"

I look forward to working with you!
